Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Volcanic Tablelands (Happy/... : Happy Boulders : ... : Hard Crack (V3) By: Tim Steele When: Mar 7, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: One of the best and only splitters in Bishop. Nowhere near V4. If Bachar Cracker is V3/4, this thing is V1 max. It's scarier than hard. If it were on a route, the route would be 5.10, so in that case it might even be V0+. Of course, finger size might matter. I'm just saying it's definitely not 5.12 ... or 5.11. Really deserves more traffic. The landing is worse than Atari though, so take care.

Location: CA : Sierra Eastside : Bishop Area : Pine Creek Canyon : Sheelite Canyon / Pratt's C... : Gecko Wall By: Tim Steele When: Oct 15, 2012 | view comment >> |
Comments: Nice addition, but this wall has already been entered as the Planetarium Wall (its proper name). Maybe move the route to that area so it is included with neighboring routes.

Location: CA : Sonora Pass (Hwy 108) : Columns of the Giants : Delirious (5.12a) By: Tim Steele When: Aug 7, 2011 | view comment >> |
Comments: This route is billed as the steepest .12a in Cali, but it might be the steepest in the country. Can't think of anything steeper than this. IMO it's mega classic for the grade as far as sport routes go.

Comments: Sherman did FA this. I believe he wrote about it somewhere. I think I remember him saying he named it after a redhead in a beer poster - maybe Killian's? Great problem and a bit more serious than see spot run.

Comments: Super classic. Feels about as hard as solarium. Def easier and less scary than the V3 to the right of Water Saps...

Comments: yeah, ditto Jason's comment. This line is o.k., but it's not as good as many other moderates. Mr. Witty, Atari, Rene, Will's Arete, and the Gleaner are all better lines IMO.
